CMMSG Newsletter Index - Issues 101 to 150

Introduction

This index consists of 3 parts:

Part 1 - Subject HeadingsPart 2 - Subject IndexPart 3 - Chronological Listing of Newsletter Contents

Part 1 is set out historically, that is, following history's timeline. An exception is the listing forgeneric articles not tied to a specific point in time (e.g. CMMSG matters). This is a full listing of thesubjects covered in the CMMSG Newsletter that have been indexed.

Explanation : World War One (1914-1919)- British FPOs used by Canada- Canadian Bases in England- Canadian Forces Abroad in WW I- Censor Markings- COEF - Canadian Overseas Expeditionary Force WW I

The bold indicates a major subject heading, the indented lines are minor subject headings.To save space, the minor headings for generic listings have not been included here. The sameheadings are used in the main index in Part 2.

Part 2 is the main index. It lists the same subjects alphabetically, giving the issue number and pagenumber for each article indexed. This list also contains cross-references.

Example: AFAL, see Military Postal StationeryAllied Forces in Canada

Free Czech Forces: n. 135: p. 346Alaska Highway

Alaska Highway: n. 103: p. 26

The main headings are again shown in bold, the secondary ones indented and regular. Thefont used for these is Arial 10 points. The minor headings (the actual indexed subjects) are shown inTimes Roman 10 pt font, regular, followed by the issue number and page number.

Part 3 is a listing of all newsletter issues (101 to 150) in chronological order, showing the indexedarticles by page number.

Index to the CMMSG Newsletter 101-150

Example: #101 (91-10)Hubba, Hubba: 1Siberian Geishas: 3

The first number is the issue, followed by the date of issue in YY-MM format (i.e. 91-10 isOctober 1991). The indented lines that follow list the indexed articles contained in that issue of theCMMSG newsletter.

In compiling this index, I have tried to retain the broad approach of the Newsletter Index preparedby Ritch Toop in 1991, as well as follow the excellent example set by the BNA Topics CumulativeIndex by Charles Livermore. The suggestions from Dean Mario and others, who reviewed the draftversion, were very much appreciated.

This index, however, is not complete. Ideally, it ought to be combined with Ritch Toops' work of1991. This, then, should be regarded as an interim effort towards a full cumulative index to bepublished in the (near) future. Meanwhile, comments and suggestions will be welcomed.
